4 CMS ICD-10 Implementation Today Medicare Implementation The Medicare implementation is on track. Internal testing started. State Medicaid Agencies CMS conducted a State assessment in January 2013 and in early May May results currently are being compiled. Assessment response rate was 94% in January Providers Health plans, clearinghouses, large physician practices and hospitals are on target for ICD-10 implementation. CMS is providing small physician practices with additional technical assistance. Vendors Vendors are having discussions with their customers to ramp up ICD-10 efforts. 4

5 To Test or Not to Test? Medicare Fee For Service has announced that it will not conduct end-toend testing of claims with providers for ICD-10 Medicare FFS is confident that the current level of testing done each quarter for changes to the Medicare claims processing systems is effective. Medicare FFS follows a very rigorous system development life cycle testing protocol. System maintainers render alpha testing for one month, single testing contractor renders beta testing for two months, and the MAC s conduct user acceptance testing for one month. System changes to be completed in October 2013 with additional testing up to the October 1, 2014 implementation date. Industry health plans that may not have a similarly rigorous testing protocol in place should proceed with end-to-end testing to ensure continued reimbursement flow. This is no way signals any change in the implementation of ICD-10 on the October 1, 2014 date. OESS will continue to monitor payers best practices on testing, and keep industry apprised of these best practices as well as any testing changes/concerns that arise. 5
